The Best Way to Break Up With Someone
This comes from a communications expert, Carol Barkes. Here are some talking points for an interview on how to break up with someone in the best possible way:
1) Acknowledge the positive. When relationships end, it doesn’t necessarily mean our love and feelings for the person ends, too. We can love someone and still know the relationship is not right for each other. With that being said, acknowledging this is and recognizing the lovely moments that brought the two of you together is a far better spin for our brains than to completely focus on the negatives.

The Brain Science Behind Gender Bias in the Workplace: Communications Explored
Some talking points for an interview on
women on gender bias in the workplace:
- As one of the San Francisco Bay Area first female firefighters and now a woman in a still largely male dominated legal field, I regularly experience gender bias. In fact, we all do and some of it cannot be helped.
- Biases come in two forms extrinsic and intrinsic. Intrinsic biases happen “under the hood” or unconsciously. They are our brains way of filtering information that is ancestral in nature—is someone a friend or is someone a potential threat, for instance. Extrinsic biases are consciously driven in that we choose to have them. For instance, I choose not to hire a woman.

Perimenopausal Depression: A Unique Form of Depression Calls for an Alternative Approach
Available for Interviews: Dr. Eldred Taylor
Interview Dr. Eldred Taylor to answer all of your women’s health questions regarding hormonal imbalances and how to correct them. Dr. Taylor is a leader in the hormone industry and is passionate about helping women while using a holistic functional medicine approach.
Talking Points for an Interview with Dr. Taylor
on Perimenopausal Depression:
What is perimenopause? Perimenopause usually occurs between ages 35-50. Around this age ovulation in women is more erratic and the menstrual cycle becomes irregular. This is caused by an imbalance in female hormones, estrogen and progesterone. Estrogen affects serotonin in the brain and progesterone affects a brain chemical called GABA. Serotonin and GABA affect mood positively. A disruption in ovulation leads to a disruption in hormones, and this leads to a disruption in mood in the negative which leads to depression.
Statistics. Studies show that anywhere from 20%–40% of perimenopausal women will experience depression.
Perimenopausal depression. This kind of depression is caused by this imbalance in the brain chemicals mentioned above. What makes women even more susceptible to depression is life stress. Around this time women may be dealing with divorce, single parenting, college tuition, sick and aging parents, etc. All of this is happening simultaneously, and a woman’s hormones are affecting her ability to handle the stress. This combination can lead to depression.
Signs of depression. Signs include irritability, lack of interest in activities, fatigue, lack of motivation, excessive sleeping or insomnia, weight gain, and cravings.
How to obtain treatment: Antidepressants are not the answer. The best option is to measure hormones with saliva testing to diagnose the hormonal imbalance. Once the imbalance in hormones is diagnosed, the hormones should be balanced using bio-identical hormones.
